The radar

The Charleston,WV radar (KRLX), 83 km from the middle of the area, began a volume at 21:01 UTC, the scan nearest the moment this went out.

The archived warnings, watches and discussions in force at that minute are drawn over the scan, this one among them.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

Area forecast discussion, May 11, 4:30 PM EDT, 32 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE JACKSON KY
430 PM EDT MON MAY 11 2015

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 350 PM EDT MON MAY 11 2015

A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS THE REGION
THIS AFTERNOON. THIS PROMPTED A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR
PORTIONS OF THE CWA WITH MAIN THREAT BEING DAMAGING WINDS AND
HAIL. THESE STORMS HAVE FIRED UP IN A MODERATELY UNSTABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH SBCAPE AOA 1000 J/KG...SOME DEWPOINTS IN THE LOW
TO MID 60S...AND LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AROUND 8 C/KM. ALSO SOME
EXTRA HELP WITH LIFT FROM WEAK UPPER LEVEL WAVES MOVING THROUGH
THE FLOW. THESE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO SUBSIDE
TONIGHT...AS BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING BEGINS TO DROP OFF. OVERNIGHT
WE COULD SEE POTENTIAL FOR SPRINKLES AS THE FRONT FINALLY SWEEPS
ACROSS THE REGION...HOWEVER LEFT THIS OUT OF THE GRIDS AT THIS
POINT WITH LOWER CONFIDENCE ON LEFT OVER MOISTURE.

MOVING INTO YOUR TUESDAY HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE OHIO
VALLEY. THIS WILL USHER IN COOLER AND CLOSER TO NORMAL TEMPS FOR
YOU TUESDAY WITH HIGHS GENERALLY IN THE LOW TO MID 70S. THIS HIGH
WILL ALSO USHER IN DRYER AIR WITH CLEARING SKIES FROM WEST TO EAST
THROUGH THE DAY ON TUESDAY. TUESDAY NIGHT WILL BE COOLER WITH
CLEAR SKIES AND LOWS GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 40 TO NEAR 50.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 430 PM EDT MON MAY 11 2015

MODELS ARE GENERALLY IN BETTER AGREEMENT TODAY THROUGH DY5/FRI AND
THEN DIVERGE A BIT FROM THERE. BUT OVERALL LARGE SCALE PATTERNS
STILL LOOK SIMILAR ALOFT WITH A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES DIGGING OUT A
MEAN TROUGH OVER THE WEST COAST...WESTERN CONUS. AT TIMES SHORTWAVE
DISTURBANCES EJECT NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE PLAINS AND INTO THE
GREAT LAKES REGION AS ADDITIONAL ENERGY DROPS INTO THE DEEP
SOUTHWEST CARVING OUT THE AFOREMENTIONED TROUGH...CUTOFF LOW OVER
THE DEEP SOUTHWEST.

MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGING IN COMBINATION WITH SFC HIGH PRESSURE WILL
KEEP OUR WEATHER DRY THROUGH THURSDAY. FIRST SHORTWAVE OUT OF THE
SOUTHWEST WILL BRING THE THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BACK
INTO THE AREA BY LATE THURSDAY NIGHT...EARLY FRIDAY MORNING.
ADDITIONAL SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROUNDING THE TOP OF A MEAN EASTERN CONUS
RIDGE WILL KEEP OUR WEATHER WARM...MUGGY AND UNSETTLED THROUGH THE
REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. AFTER A COOL START WEDNESDAY...
TEMPERATURES WILL RUN ABOVE NORMALS. COUNT ON AT LEAST CHANCE POPS
FROM FRIDAY THROUGH TO THE END OF THE FORECAST WINDOW.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 133 PM EDT MON MAY 11 2015

THIS AFTERNOON WE HAVE SEEN CONVECTION FIRE UP ACROSS PORTIONS OF
EASTERN KY. THESE ISOLATED TO SCATTER STORMS WILL BE THE BIGGEST
CONCERN FOR THE NEXT FEW HOURS. IT DOES LOOK LIKE THERE COULD BE
TWO ROUND...ONE ONGOING CONVECTION MORE DIURNALLY DRIVEN UNDER
MODERATELY UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT...TWO THE COLD FRONT AND ANY
OUTFLOWS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. THE SECOND LINE IS IN QUESTION GIVEN
THAT STORMS HAVE ALREADY FIRED AND COULD TAP OUT THE CURRENT
UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT. THE BIGGEST THREAT FROM THIS AVIATION WISE
LOOKS TO BE THE POTENTIAL FOR GUSTY WINDS AND REDUCED VIS.
OTHERWISE OVERNIGHT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DIE
OFF WITH DAYTIME HEATING AND FRONT SWEEPING ACROSS THE REGION.
THE OTHER ISSUE TONIGHT WILL BE POTENTIAL FOR FOG AND/OR LOW
STRATUS DECK. RIGHT NOW PLAN TO KEEP LOW STRATUS DECK WITH
POTENTIAL FOR AT LEAST MVFR CEILINGS OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY
TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL RETURN TOMORROW WITH CLEARING SKIES.
